Book (series)Evaluation reportEvaluación de resultados y lecciones aprendidas del "Programa Mesoamérica sin Hambre: Marcos institucionales más efectivos para mejorar la agricultura familiar y la seguridad alimentaria y nutricional”
Código de programa: GCP/SLM/001/MEX
2022Also available in:
No results found.El Programa Mesoamérica Sin Hambre (MSH) es una iniciativa de cooperación regional, con un presupuesto total de 15 millones de dólares y un ciclo de duración de ocho años (2015-2022), financiada por la Agencia Mexicana de Cooperación Internacional para el Desarrollo (AMEXCID) y ejecutada por la FAO en nueve países de Mesoamérica: Belice, Costa Rica, Colombia, El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Panamá y República Dominicana. El Programa ha logrado alcanzar los dos resultados planificados, con distintos niveles de avances en los países participantes. En particular todos los países disponen de un marco habilitante inicial para mejorar el apoyo del Estado a los productores de la agricultura familiar y a la seguridad alimentaria nutricional y se han fortalecido capacidades de instituciones sectoriales y de gobiernos locales para la gestión de servicios de apoyo a la seguridad alimentaria y la agricultura familiar. La evaluación identifica numerosas experiencias con potenciales de aprendizaje, entre las cuales destacan la complementariedad con otras intervenciones de FAO y de otros cooperantes, el modelaje regional de instrumentos de política sectorial, experiencias de CSS-Triangular entre los países participantes. La evaluación recomienda la continuidad del apoyo financiero para la implementación de una siguiente fase del programa MSH para el período 2023-2028 dando particular atención al diseño de instrumentos para incrementar la sostenibilidad de las capacidades institucionales y la elaboración de modelo conceptual de intervención que considere todos los factores causales del problema y su interacción. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureFrom reference levels to results reporting: REDD+ under the UNFCCC 2017
Also available in:
No results found.For well over a decade, developing countries have been encouraged to undertake activities in their forestry sectors that are designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions while also working to conserve, enhance and sustainably manage forest carbon stocks. These activities are known collectively as Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation (REDD+), which was established under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). More recently, these actions were con firmed by the landmark Paris Agreement on climate change, which entered into force in 2016, as a core element of a new global climate change regime. Under this regime, governments have agreed on policy approaches and positive incentives for activities that reduce GHG emissions and enhance carbon sinks in the forest sector in developing countries. Countries have been supported in their REDD+ efforts by organizations including United Nations Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO), which has spe cialized in assisting the development of measurement, reporting and verification (MRV) capabilities – crucial to the REDD+ process. This flyer provides an update of developments related to the MRV of REDD+ activities, as well as updating activities related to countries’ submissions of Forest Reference (Emission) Levels (FRELs/FRLs). This report will also summarize experiences with the technical assessment process as of early 2017 and offer an overview of initial REDD+ results reporting and tec hnical analyses of those reports.

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2023
Urbanization, agrifood systems transformation and healthy diets across the rural–urban continuum
2023This report provides an update on global progress towards the targets of ending hunger (SDG Target 2.1) and all forms of malnutrition (SDG Target 2.2) and estimates on the number of people who are unable to afford a healthy diet. Since its 2017 edition, this report has repeatedly highlighted that the intensification and interaction of conflict, climate extremes and economic slowdowns and downturns, combined with highly unaffordable nutritious foods and growing inequality, are pushing us off track to meet the SDG 2 targets. However, other important megatrends must also be factored into the analysis to fully understand the challenges and opportunities for meeting the SDG 2 targets. One such megatrend, and the focus of this year’s report, is urbanization. New evidence shows that food purchases in some countries are no longer high only among urban households but also among rural households. Consumption of highly processed foods is also increasing in peri-urban and rural areas of some countries. These changes are affecting people’s food security and nutrition in ways that differ depending on where they live across the rural–urban continuum. This timely and relevant theme is aligned with the United Nations General Assembly-endorsed New Urban Agenda, and the report provides recommendations on the policies, investments and actions needed to address the challenges of agrifood systems transformation under urbanization and to enable opportunities for ensuring access to affordable healthy diets for everyone. -
DocumentOther documentReducing inequalities for food security and nutrition
A report by the High Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition
2023The report “Reducing inequalities for food security and nutrition” has been developed by the High Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition (HLPE-FSN) following the request by the United Nations Committee on World Food Security (CFS) as included in its Programme of Work (MYPoW 2020-2023). In particular, the CFS requested the HLPE-FSN to develop a report to: (i) analyse evidence relating to how inequalities in access to assets (particularly land, other natural resources and finance) and in incomes within food systems impede opportunities for many actors to overcome food insecurity and malnutrition; (ii) analyse the drivers of inequalities and provide recommendations on entry points to address these; and (iii) identify areas requiring further research and data collection. This report will inform the ensuing CFS thematic workstream on inequalities, aiming at addressing the root causes of food insecurity with a focus on those “most affected by hunger and malnutrition”. -

No results found.What will be needed to realize the vision of a world free from hunger and malnutrition? After shedding light on the nature of the challenges that agriculture and food systems are facing now and throughout the 21st century, the study provides insights into what is at stake and what needs to be done. “Business as usual” is not an option. Major transformations in agricultural systems, rural economies, and natural resources management are necessary. The present study was undertaken for the quadrennial review of FAO’s strategic framework and for the preparation of the Organization Medium-Term plan 2018-2021.
